Halloween Candy Aftermath

What to do to "counteract" the aftermath of too much Halloween candy? I thought this was a very temporary phase in my life, but turns out that if I start with one piece of any variety of miniature chocolates, then the domino effect begins.

So this morning I thought about drinking more water than usual and trying to eat lots of protein and stuff that is very low in sugar. Don't ask about my rationale! Just know that right now I feel like the human version of Pixy Stix.

I have vowed a cleanse day filled with fruits/vegetables/lean meats Not sure this is enough to counteract the mini-candy fueled damage of yesterday, but figure one day candy-free is a worthy accomplishment / enough to forget about the past
